Information Literacy Availability and affordability of insulin
As you learned in the reading for Unit 4, URLs (web addresses) associated with the retrieval information while others only have a series of numbers. These numbers are known as Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs). The purpose of a DOI is to clearly and directly identify content and provide a persistent link to its location on the Internet.
For our discussion, this week, use the Herzing online library to conduct a search of peer-reviewed sources related to the topic you identified in the Unit 2 assignment. Find an article that includes a reference page. Examine the reference page.
- Are there any sources that include a DOI?
- In addition, what additional sources does the reference page lead you to that would be useful to you?
In a well-developed initial post, walk your classmates through the process as you conducted your search.
- Then, explain what insights you had as you reviewed the reference page for your source.
- Finally, make the case for the DOI and its ability to give the reader instant access to the exact same information you are using to inform or persuade them.
Please be sure to validate your opinions and ideas with citations and references in APA format.
Please review post and response expectations.

ORDER CUSTOM, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPER
Weekly Participation
Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately.
In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies.
Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).
Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.
APA Format and Writing Quality
Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required).
Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.
I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.
